problems setting php.ini

Hi people!
usually this is not a problem, but I have never seen something like that
before. After I compiled php 5.3.2 from source, and running phpinfo(),
the info page told me that it didn't parse the php.ini file.

the php.ini file had been placed from me in "/usr/local/lib" just as php
tell me: Configuration File (php.ini) Path "/usr/local/lib"
Loaded Configuration File: none

Can anybody of you tell me what I made wrong?

for any support of your side I would kindly thank you.
